 Cricket is themost
popular sports in India. Enjoyed by the rich, poor and the middle class,
it is considered by many as a religion in India. Untill 1983 when India
won the coveted world cup under the effective leadership of Kapil Dev the
Indian Cricket lover was content in admiring the game and the performances
of some individuals. Winning was not always a passion. Ever since that
famous victory against Zimbabwe in the 1983 world cup powered by the incredible
175 from Kapil Dev, the expectations of the Indian Cricket follower has
gone up. He expects a miracle if necessary and the Indian team to win always.
This is the mood in which Indian Cricket enthusiast is preparing himself
for the 1999 world cup. This site is devoted to reflecting the views of
the average Indian Cricket lover to the world audience. You can make it

this site.
As an avid follower of cricket for the last 4 decades, I believe that
amongst all the Captains' performances that India has benefited from, Kapil's
knock of 175 refered above has contributed most to the development of
Indian Cricket. Shall I have you views? You can send your brief articles
